mpc85xx: Fix NAPI poll mechanism in GIANFAR ethernet driver
This patch fixes the NAPI poll mechanism in the GIANFAR ethernet driver, which was not properly working since Linus Kernel Version 3,8. Therefore the workaround patch to downgrade the GIANFAR ethernet driver to Kernelversion v3.8 is obsoete. This patch was extensivly testes with different network loads and types of traffic. There is quite a substantial user base that reports proper Ethernet function with TPlink-4900. This patch is based on the fixes from GINAFAR maintainer Claudiu Manoli.
